Chapter 240 Dubai Fusion Power Station Completed
Chapter 240 Dubai Fusion Power Station Completed
At the end of August 2011, it was the dry and hot season in Dubai again. It was at this time that Zeng Lingfeng took his wife Mariam to come here on the "Lingfeng".
Zeng Lingfeng did not come to Dubai for a trip or took Mariam back to his parents' home to visit relatives. Instead, the first fusion power station built by Hanyu Mimon Group overseas was officially completed and is about to be merged. Zeng Lingfeng came this time to attend the completion ceremony.
The construction of Dubai Fusion began in the spring of 2010. After a year, six months and three days, a total of 550 days of construction, it was finally completed. Searches are all on iXi
This is a fusion power station with an installed capacity of only 20 million kilowatts. In the Hanyu Mimeng Group's classification of fusion power stations, it can only be regarded as a medium-sized fusion power station, and they are both relatively small in medium-sized.
This is not that Dubai has no money to build a larger fusion power station, but that it does not require so much electricity. In the entire Dubai, including foreign citizens, the total population is only less than three million, the area is less than 4,000 square kilometers, less than twice that of a district in Danxing. Although such a small emirate is very wealthy, it does not have much demand for electricity.
Before Hanyu Mimeng Group built a fusion power station here, the installed capacity of Dubai was only 8 million kilowatts, which was enough for Dubai's electricity demand. Even the entire UAE, all its installed capacity was only 20 million kilowatts, which was only a little larger than the Three Gorges Power Station.
In other words, once the medium-sized fusion power station built by Hanyu Mimeng Group begins to drive power generation with all its might, it will be enough to meet the power demand of the entire UAE. If it is only used in Dubai, there will be too much surplus.
In fact, this fusion power station was not just established alone in Dubai, but was jointly established by the Emirates of Sharjah. When the time comes, the emirates of Abu Dhabi and the entire UAE will use the power of this power station.
The location of the fusion power station is in Dubai near the border line of the Emirates of Abu Dhabi. Dubai's Jebel Ali Free Trade Zone, which is near the Palm Island of Alishan, is close to the Dubai World Center International Airport under construction. It was originally a desert, and a canal dug artificially dredged brings sea water. After proper desalination, it is used as the water for the power station.
This is also impossible. Dubai does not have enough fresh water. If seawater is used directly, the damage to the power plant equipment will be very large, which will greatly shorten the life of the power plant. In fact, this does not require the desalination of seawater that can be used for drinking, but simply desalination.
This huge water diversion channel is not entirely used as water for power plants. At the same time, it will also become a natural moat in the power plant area, isolating the power plant area from the surrounding area.
The Dubai government attaches great importance to the security of the power station and applies to the UAE government to mobilize nearly 5,000 troops to a strengthening regiment to use it as a defense force for the power station.
This is already a very terrifying data for the UAE. Because the entire UAE has only more than 60,000 military forces, while its army forces are only more than 50,000. In other words, the UAE has taken out one-tenth of its national strength to protect this power station.
Of course, this power station is really too effective for Dubai and the UAE as a whole. Because it can provide the electricity needed by the UAE nation.
Although the UAE has a lot of oil and natural gas resources, if you only use it yourself, you will not be able to use it for hundreds of years. However, oil and natural gas are non-renewable resources after all, and can also be the largest source of economic resources in the UAE. If it is mined one day, it will be an unimaginable disaster for the entire UAE.
It is precisely because of this that over the years, the UAE has been seeking alternative energy resources to reduce the use of domestic oil and gas resources. Before that, due to the limitations of conditions, other roads have been blocked, leaving only the path of nuclear energy.
However, the danger of fission power plants is too great. Once an incident like leakage occurs, it will be a devastating disaster for the narrow-regional UAE. Therefore, the UAE has never dared to vigorously develop fission.
This is true for the UAE. Dubai, one of its member states, is even more urgent in this regard because of its oil and gas resources being almost exhausted.
Now, Hanyu Mimon Group has developed controlled nuclear fusion, which is the best choice for Dubai and even the entire UAE.
In the face of such a thing, the smaller the country, the simpler the situation and less force involved. Therefore, Dubai quickly made the decision to build a fusion power station, and the smaller Sharjah quickly joined in. However, the emirate of Abu Dhabi, which is much larger than Dubai, was unable to make a decision so quickly.
After all, controlled nuclear fusion will be a new energy that has a fatal blow to traditional energy such as oil and natural gas. Once it is widely developed and applied, it will even completely replace traditional energy such as oil and natural gas.
Now this new energy is only used to build large-scale projects and cannot be widely used in other fields. Countries and forces like the UAE can barely accept its existence. After all, it can still alleviate the gradually prominent energy crisis.
However, everything needs to be of one degree. Once controlled nuclear fusion can be widely used, the UAE may have to change its attitude.
Because Abu Dhabi is the largest emirate in the UAE and the strongest economic emirate in the UAE, the president of the UAE has always been the chief of Abu Dhabi, so Abu Dhabi did not participate in the construction of the fusion power station as soon as possible, so we can see some things.
The one who came to the airport to welcome Zeng Lingfeng and Mariam was Crown Prince Hamdan. Although, in terms of identity, Zeng Lingfeng could afford Chief Mohamed to welcome him, Chief Mohamed was his father-in-law. Zeng Lingfeng naturally did not dare to make such a request, and Chief Mohamed could not do so.
As soon as they met, Hamdan gave Zeng Lingfeng a strong bear hug. Now, Zeng Lingfeng is not only his good brother, but also the husband of his closest sister, and his relationship is even further.
After a simple welcoming ceremony at the airport, Zeng Lingfeng and Mariam boarded the car that Hamdan sent to greet her, a silver Rolls-Royce.
"Mariam, my good sister, and Ling Feng, you couple have been married for almost a year, why haven't you given me a nephew?" Hamdan asked after getting in the car.
Mariam rolled her eyes to her second brother who looked wretched. Zeng Lingfeng smiled and said, "Hamdan, I also hope Mariam can give birth to a child for me, but she is still too young now, which is not good for her. I love her, so I don't want to cause harm to her."
Hamdan smiled. He could see that Zeng Lingfeng was telling the truth. It seemed that his brother-in-law still doted on his sister. As a result, he felt much more at ease. Before this, he had been worried that Zeng Lingfeng, who had many fickle women, would not treat his precious sister well.
"Ling Feng, I'm very happy that you can be so kind to Mariam. However, Mariam will soon be twenty years old and is already an adult. I hope to see my little nephew come to this world as soon as possible. You must know that Mariam's sisters' nephews came to this world early." Hamdan said again.
In Dubai, many girls get married when they are under the age of twenty and become mothers. Take Princess Hurd, the mother of Hamdan and Mariam, for example. She married his father when she was sixteen, and the following year, she gave birth to his brother, the eldest prince of Dubai.
Mariam's sisters got married from the age of sixteen to eighteen. Mariam got married at the age of nineteen. She is already the latest among the princesses in Dubai.
Moreover, including Princess Shekha, who is only eleven months older than Mariam, she got married two years ago and now her daughter is over one year old.
And those like Zeng Lingfeng and Mariam who have been married for a year and have no children are unique among all the daughters who have been married in Dubai.
Of course, he would not doubt Zeng Lingfeng's ability in this regard, but he, the brother who is closest to Mariam, is very concerned about it.
Zeng Lingfeng stopped talking, while Mariam showed a somewhat shy expression.
Seeing Zeng Lingfeng and Mariam's expressions, Hamdan burst into laughter and no longer said anything about this.
Hamdan found some more relaxed topics, but what made Zeng Lingfeng very depressed was that he didn't know whether Hamdan was interested or unintentional. These topics always revolved around the children. They were all about the children of his married sisters' children. What interesting news came from him on one day? He saw which nephew or niece.
Zeng Lingfeng heard a big head, and Mariam next to him was sitting beside him, listening to her closest second brother talking about the sisters' children, her face full of envy. Obviously, she wanted to replace her sisters and have such a cute son and daughter. What made Zeng Lingfeng scream the most was that this girl looked at him pitifully from time to time, and her intention was self-evident. Naturally, she hoped that she would no longer take insurance measures when she loved Zeng Lingfeng in the future. In the end, Zeng Lingfeng had to look up at the roof of the car and avoid Mariam's pitiful eyes.
The convoy sent Zeng Lingfeng and Mariam to the villa that Hamdan sent him, and then Hamdan said goodbye, saying that the chief's father would hold a banquet to entertain them in the evening, and see you again.
